Could I be Pregnant??

I am new here and read alot of peoples stories, but I have not wrote anything till now. Iam 37 yr old married with 2 children. Which first of all I was content with just 2 beautiful healthy children 1-boy, 1- girl. (WANTED NO MORE) Till all of a sudden We make that 1 time slip up. 1 day before my ovulation would be. Days later I felt alittle different. I would sware I am pregnant. My boobs were killing me for 2 wks after and still are alittle now. I happen to have a regular drs appt(internal MD) and mention to her I thought I could be, so she gave me a test But it was 7 days before my period is due. That was last monday. My period is due Feb 19th. She called and said it was negative, though it may be to early to detect any HCG levels. Anyway, I still felt prg all week. Today I see lite pink as I went to use the bathroom. My boobs still hurt, I am hugely bloating!! if it was my Period, that pain i know goes away on me, as well as my bloating too. My stomach feels odd. Hard to explain what the feeling is, but the weird feeling like I am pregnant. I am tired and have nausua (time to time) But I took 2 HPT and both were neg. (although they were from the $1.00 store & I did them at night. Uggg am I nuts whats up?? Its weird. I have the intuition that i am pregnant!!! p.s I thought I was ok with 2 kids,But i am feeling alittle bummed i may not be. Does anyone have any hope they could share with me. You think I could still pregnant or am i nuts

Hi, I really don't have an answer but I didn't want you to agonize alone! Did your dr give you a blood test? I've always heard that a blood test is very sensitive but then again I read some other posts regarding levels that don't elevate till way after AF is due. So if it wasn't a blood test then you may want to test after the 19th. Good luck and I hope things work out for you!

Maybe you should try one of the more expensive tests. The ones theat have early detection. I think first response has one of the earliest detection ratings.

hi, thank you for the reponses. Well I normally would try a more expensive one. But I guess I was just trying to hold off on it and wait. I am very lightly bleeding today and cramping hugely. I never do when my period is due. So I dont know what to think. I am actually thinking that made I miscarried before I even could really test to be pregnant. I have miscarried before. its just so weird. Woman say, Oh you know when your done and dont want to have any more children. I thought I was and now all of sudden I feel disapointed that I probably am not pregnant. whats up with that? I had a blood clot for my 2nd pregnancy and almost died. I was told not to get pregnant anymore. I didnt like to be told that (i wanted to make that decision ) but i was learning to live with it. No I get all excited and extremly scared I could be pregnant. Now crazy me wants to try again to have 1 more. Nuts right??

You sound like me. I have 2 kids (they are only 2 and 1) and we were going to wait at least a year, if we even decided to have any more. Well, I'm on the pill and AF should have started around the 11 or 12th, and I haven't seen her yet. I took 2 dollar store hpt, both negative, and I need to go get a First Response. We were at Walmart last nite, and they were all out to them. I am almost positive I am pg, but am going nuts!! I have "heavy" feeling bb, not sore, and am tired, and alot of gooey (sorry tmi) mucous. Usually my bb don't feel different at all, even before AF, and my belly is feeling bloaty, which I usually don't have either. My lower belly kinda feels full, is that how yours feels?? I am going to go out today and find a First Response if I have to drive to the next town!! Good luck.

I do not think you are nuts. everything happens for a reason. I do believe that. If you are meant to have another, you will.
You are in the same boat my sister in law is. She has a 9 year old and swore that she only wanted one and would never have another. Now, she is 5 or 6 weeks pregnant.

I think if you are bleeding that is ot a good sign, but what do i know. I do know with both my other children and now this one i cramped the whole pregnancy off and on. And i do not really cramp much withg my period.
But everyone is different.

Good luck to you. And if you want another one, i would find a way to make it happen. Get a second opinion, or even a third.
